Life SenseLife Sense (10): A wight possesses a constantly active magical ability to sense life. By making a Sense roll with normal range penalties, a wight may sense all nearby living beings, knowing their precise location. A follow-up IQ roll may reveal information about the living being, with margin of success of 0-1 only revealing vague information, such as race, and margin of success of 4+ revealing detailed information, such as age, gender, and physical condition.	10	A wight possesses a constantly active magical ability to sense life.

Psychic Value SensePsychic Value Sense (6): Whenever a wight touches an object, the GM may make a roll against IQ-4 (6) to sense strong emotions and psychic impressions tied to the object’s history. On a critical success, the wight receives an actual vision of a significant past event. Roll at no additional penalty for events earlier the same day, at ‑1 for up to 10 days ago, ‑2 for up to 100 days ago, ‑3 for up to three years ago, and an another ‑1 per additional 10x multiplier. The wight cannot use this ability actively – this is a passive sense.	6	Whenever a wight touches an object, the GM may make a roll against IQ-4 (6) to sense strong emotions and psychic impressions tied to the object’s history.

Where this one came from

Source record: Wight [Monster Manual, page 255]
Source system: gurps_4e_fan_conversion / author_permission
Released under: cc_by_4_0
Conversion: 0.2.0-reviewed
Review status: approved

GCS ancestry draft: gcs/wight.gct
Source template total: 121 points.
Library-rebuilt template total: 121 points.
CER was computed from parsed Typical Stats using the Dungeons On Automatic baseline CER path.
CER recomputed from the reviewed Typical Stats through the canonical Dungeons on Automatic CER path: OR 65, PR 8, CER 73, threat tier major.
Encounter metadata derived (default): average number appearing 1, wandering weight 2. Encounter metadata derived for 0.2.0 from the reviewed threat tier and creature class (appearing: minor 4 / standard 2 / major 1 / severe 1, forced to 1 for solitary classes — including swarms, which are a single multi-body creature — and raised to 6 for gregarious minor creatures; wandering weight: minor 4 / standard 3 / major 2 / severe 1). The fan-conversion source states no appearing-in-numbers or wandering values, so these are derived, not source mechanics.
Lair, treasure, and grappling remain unpopulated in 0.2.0 by package policy: the authorized fan-conversion source states no lair, treasure, or grappling values, and review declines to invent them. See review/policy/0.2.0-empty-field-policy.md.
Review approved by automated-mechanical-review on 2026-07-26 (batch ee-2026-07-26-b4-special-mechanics); GCS fidelity check passed, DOA playability check passed.
Special-mechanics record. Mechanics the CER path cannot price are named per record in review/reports/cer-audit.md rather than folded into the number, and encounter counts are capped where a save-or-disable attack is present.
